**Three years ago**
The sun is already shining on the horizon. I get out of my bed with my fairy mates all around me, each doing their duty. I moved over to the window, pulled aside the golden curtains and peered through the window. It was almost dawn. The birds are chipping, some are flying in groups under the sky as I watch from above. I think, they're journeying to go get breakfast.
In my celestial home, and as the moon goddess I could watch everything that is going on in the world. I observed one thing, my children, the werewolves are encountering a lot of challenges in the hands of their new queen, Pandora.
"Hey, come here Lucinda." I waved to her and in a twinkle of an eye, she came close by, standing at my side. "Look!" I pointed, she obeyed. We could clearly see the world from our celestial habitat. The palace of the great king, the king of the werewolves was our focus. "Your Majesty, this is so bad. You've to do something about this."
"We have to do something about this!" I corrected. Lucinda was my Personal Assistant, she's a moon spirit and second-in-command to me, a best friend and more. I always told her all of my decisions and most of the time we sat down to have friendly chats, at other times serious discussions took place.
The moon is full of spirits all of which I rule. To those under, it would seem a lifeless element but it's full of living creatures though we are not mortals but spirits. Light from the sun overshadows us and a great river lies underneath us separating the sky from us. This river I go over to the edge of my castle and stare into it every morning at dawn, admiring its glorious nature and the slow waves of the golden water. The rays from the sun make it appear this way.
This morning I couldn't perform my usual ritual of going over to the barricade of my castle to view the golden river because I'm so disturbed. I stare closer into the heart of the wolf world where the palace stood with Lucinda.
All started when a young prince, his name Douglas, woke up. His girlfriend was still in bed sleeping peacefully, they didn't know a great evil was about to fall upon them. Prince Douglas was the only child of the first Luna of King Morris. His mother had died when he was eighteen, she was murdered by his father's mistress, Pandora.
Pandora is a one thousand year old vampire queen who was banished by her own people, the vampires due to her cruel acts and hatred towards humans. Being someone that possessed a greedy taste to be in power, she traveled to the wolf world and succeeded in making friends with the jovial wolf king. King Morris didn't know who she was, he wasn't aware she's a vampire. For many centuries, the greatest enemies of the wolves were vampires and worst of all hybrids. Witchcraft is prohibited in the wolf world, so she being a witch also would make her a taboo to the shifters.
King Morris realized the true nature of Pandora after she murdered his wife and became his full-time mistress, then Luna. It was too late to act as she subdued him with her mighty charms. He was turned into a weakling.
Prince Douglas went over to the window just as I did. He stared into the courtyard of the palace from the third floor of the castle. He beamed with a satisfactory smile. He must be glad and content with the great fortune that was gonna become his, the throne. His wish of being king would soon be a reality, he thought. He then looked at the pretty girl on the bed lying only in undies and smiled more.
He got ready for his day after tapping his girlfriend to wake up. Both embraced before leaving their room to the bathroom, two female maids came in immediately they left. One dressed the bed while the other cleaned the entire room mainly mopping so a fresh scent filled it.
We both washed as Douglas and his girlfriend undressed. It would be getting in between their privacy in the normal sense but we were not mortals. We were spirits and both are my children, my descendants so I did no wrong in staring right at them. Douglas caressed his girlfriend's unclothed body, she let out pleasurable moans. I imagined the sweet pleasures I'd derive if I was in such a case but No, I'm a spirit and a goddess as such.
After both were done with their romantic session, Douglas rubbed soap on their bodies then switched the shower on. The heavy sprinkle of water poured down on these lovers. "Urrrgh!" Came the sound of satisfaction from them, with every pour of the water. They washed each other, playing and throwing each other water.
After taking their bath, they laughed and rushed out of the bathroom. I shoke my head in terror, they didn't know what awaited them. They were unsuspecting of the tragedy that stood in front of them.
Douglas wore his dress, a black suit and black shoes, brushed his hair and left the room. He looked so handsome and manly, the most charming wolf prince that has ever been in the wolf kingdom. I really admired him even though I was a spirit.
"Where are you going?" I heard his girlfriend ask him.
"I'm going to see my father. I need to be serious about getting my throne."
The cute girl smiled, "Then I'll be queen." Douglas nodded, smiled and left.
I continued staring, the girl was in the room. Pandora with three masked security men came into the room. She shrugged in terror, she didn't expect anyone to invade her privacy. She was still in her undies.
"Take her out!" The queen ordered. Immediately, the three men came and dragged her out of the bed. I shook my head in disbelief. These men don't have any respect for a woman, the queen stood by the door beaming satisfactorily, her mind glad at the power she now had.
They dragged Douglas' girlfriend out despite her screams and tears. "Where are they leading her to?" Lucinda asked me. It was right in the morning and the sun's rays weren't so harsh on the skin.
I packed a few of my clothing which I'll need for my stay at the capital city, that's what the location of the famous palace of the wolf royalties is called. This location also hosts the wolf council, which is the shifter's court. After my meeting with Pandora concerning the court case, I would most likely meet the king too although he doesn't have any say especially now that Pandora has taken administration of the whole kingdom. He's something you might describe as a weakling husband who keeps quiet even when his wife does something wrong, he can't speak up as the king.Pandora is the head of the royal house, family and kingdom, in the actual sense, King Morris is just bearing a name. She's the one I have to meet in this case. Happy that Douglas has agreed to accompany me, I really need him."You have to pack your clothing…" I was cut short of my words, as he snapped."I don't have anything except this cloth I'm putting on." Pity overwhelmed me, I felt really bad for Douglas. This' n
The golden rays of the sun woke me up, and I sprang up immediately. It's late, I had desired to wake up at 5 AM and prepare. Before the sun showed up like this, it would be between 7 AM to 8 AM. I was as good as I thought, it's 8:05 AM. I gasped with my eyes wide open. I didn't realize that Douglas was watching me all this while. "Good morning my lady," the sweet voice caught me from my drama. I turned my head, there he was lying on the bed with his dreamy blue eyes watching me like I was a cinema movie. I smiled with a little shyness over me."Good morning prince," for the first time I was inclined to address him as this. He blushed in great excitement. "Do you care for a morning kiss?" He asked and I got more puzzled. Where is Douglas driving to, does he really mean all this nice attitude or he's just pretending to get what he wants? Despite the fact that I had the capability to distinguish when one is lying and when the truth is said, the emotions from this new character of his m
"Don't be scared of my reaction, say what you want to say." These statement made me bold to confront my fears and speak up. I stared deeper into Douglas' eyes for confirmation, his deep blue eyes which are thick with interest at this point. I wonder what came over him in the day and what has come over him tonight to make him change his mind and treat me so kind."You know I have a mission to fulfill in the world, first I need to get you out of prison absolutely and second I wish to re-organise everything that has gone wrong in our world. Being the luna queen would give me the best opportunity to effect the wish of the moon goddess." I threw a quick glance at his face to watch his reaction."The luna queen to me is not something to be chosen but centered on a fated mate but we are not fated mates, how's that gonna work?" He asked calmly. I tried figuring out the best answer to give him at the moment, an answer which would wipe off his doubt and make him accept my request."I am talking
I returned at about 11 PM late into the night, Douglas was in bed but quite worried to sleep. I could see by his face that he was anxious. "Why did you stay out so long?" Normally I would be angered at this question of his, feeling that he had no right to ask me that but I've learnt to quietly avoid unnecessary squabbles."I told you earlier, I was out with friends." I replied in a gentle tone, I was polite but this doesn't mean if he says or does anything foolish I wouldn't react. I just want to focus on the important things that lay before me. If I enter into a conflict with him now, the conversation which I scheduled with him tonight might possibly not hold. In life, you need to learn to act wisely and that's how I've determined to be."Well, welcome!" I'm amazed at his kind attitude, he has been rude and ungrateful during the day. Hope this' not just temporary, I just wish he sticks to this my mission would be very easy. All I want from him is him by my side. If he doesn't I would
It was 6:17 PM when we arrived at the park. We chose Cresthills Park and Game Reserve as our destination. It was a favorite in the northern part of Vienna where we resided. The park was located in the hill town of Reshford, the land where it was situated was massive like a whole city itself. The atmosphere here is chilly and the wind is refreshing.I stopped my car at the garage in the pack, got out with my friends to go sign in at the registration center. It's compulsory to document each individual that visits the park, the time of visit and places to visit in the site. It was optional if you needed a tour guide, first timers ought to have this as they weren't familiar with the environment but I don't need one. Not really like I intended visiting here, I just need a quiet and secluded place to discuss my plans since Douglas is too eager to let us have our conversation in peace. I feel that I need to take a quiet break from my usual life and chill out with my ladies. From tomorrow, I'
It is cool and calm this evening, the type of atmosphere I really love. Douglas is by this time in our room, the room he woke up in which is my bedroom, he had later tried to make me speak out what we discussed at the library. He was so eager to know but I wouldn't tell him neither any of my ladies-in-waiting. He still persisted in me calling him his majesty or Prince Douglas to which I firmly opposed. I felt bad at this, the first opposition I encountered was from the person I came to save. I feel so bad at this even till now.The book in my hand is a constant encouragement to me. The major character in the book is an eighteen year old girl who has no one to call her own, her mother died at a tender age. She was raised by her father, when she was eight, her father remarried and the stepmother came into their family with her three children. She was treated as a stranger in her own house, her step brothers and sister treated her like trash, an object of humiliation in the house where s
