Lost Queen 31: Distractions
ADRIANAI managed to convince mum to not move the whole pack. We won’t let Xander win this. And while I was scared I was dragging innocent people into this war with us. I knew they didn’t want to leave their homes. I’ll do everything to make sure the events of last week never repeat itself.We’ve all been working hard trying to rebuild and put everything back together. I have drowned myself in so much work that when I manage to lay my head down on my pillow, I’ll be out in seconds. How exhausted I was ensured I didn’t have any dreams, if I had them, I couldn’t remember.Of course, I took that as a win and kept doing the heavy labor. Many people have tried to get me to stop, saying we already have enough hands. They didn’t know why I was doing this, and I couldn’t explain.Whenever they send me away from the construction, I go to help with the kids. I make sure to keep myself busy more than eighty percent of the time.I was trying to put a four month old to sleep when I felt a hand on
Lost Queen 32: Obsession
XANDERDaciana swatches Donovan’s hand and he winces. Holding it against his chest with a look of absolute betrayal on his face.“Why’d you do that?” He asks, his voice sounding almost whiny.It would have been amusing, seeing as half of his face was injured. But nothing in the world was fucking funny.“You were picking two at a time.” Daciana replies, unapologetically, glaring at him.“Well, couldn’t you have just said that instead of hitting me?” He is still using that voice that is grating on my nerves and ears.“I’ve warned you three times already. I said I wouldn’t do it again.” She said nonchalantly, throwing a berry in her mouth.Yes, that is what they were fighting over. Like we didn’t have en-fucking-ough.I’m tired of them. And they insist on following me around like some damn bodyguards. Except, their presence doesn’t protect me from anything. If anything, they are making me want to jump to my death just so I could avoid them.But knowing both of them, they’ll jump too. So
Lost Queen 33: Run
ADRIANAWith Kian’s support, I managed to get back into training.We’ve decided to forget about The Incident. Well, I already programmed my mind to forget about it. I was glad he never tried to bring it up again.I train every day now. And though we didn’t talk about whatever mental strain Xander was putting on me by just surviving. Mum thought it would be good to add mediation and other exercises for me.A month after his stupid, heartless attack. I was ready to get back on the field with him. This time, I’ll make him regret everything he has done. And I’m not going to back down without getting what I want.“Are you sure you’re ready?” Kian asks.He helps me train in the evenings. While I go with Henry in the morning. In the afternoon though, I rest and spend my time doing other things around the pack.I feel better, both mentally and physically. And without the kind of strain I put on myself during that fire hassle. I’m able to sleep peacefully without any worries. I’m ready for thi
Lost Queen 34: Shiny Juice
ADRIANAMum’s fear was potent, I could almost feel it inside my blood. No, deep in the marrow of my bones.“What’s wrong?” I used the last ounce of strength I had to voice that question. Even at that, it comes out in a whisper.I looked up, my eyes were a bit cloudy and I looked at Kian, he was also watching me with an expression I couldn’t place. But it couldn’t be good.What is going on? What is happening to me?I was shaking inside. Terror filling me. Not just from mum, but this seems like a memory of mine. It was so close, I felt like I could reach my hand and touch it. It didn’t make any sense. None of this makes any sense.I’m about to try and find strength to speak again when mum shakes her head. She motions for Kian to pick me up. I start shaking my head. I really felt like I was going to break apart if I moved from my position.“Nothing will happen,” almost like she could hear my fear, mum said. Her tone is soft and reassuring.I breathed in and told myself to believe her. Sh
Lost Queen 35: Dimly Lit Hall
ADRIANAI’m walking in a dimly lit hall.I looked around the place, starting from my right to my left then straight ahead. I even turned around to look at my back.One thing stands out, I can’t see beyond the perimeter I’m standing. Of course, that makes the arms bells in my head ring. And my senses are on high drive. The voice in my head is telling me to get the hell out. And yes, I agree with her, except, I can’t bring myself to move.I’m moving, I’m walking ahead. But I want to run, and preferably in the opposite direction. My body doesn’t heed to that command. I could almost hear it telling me I can’t tell it what to do. It has a mind of its own now.With no progress on stopping myself from going to wherever my body is leading. I decided to look at the place some more, hoping to find a clue what the place is.How did I even get there? There is no one to answer my question.I looked up and noticed a single bulb on the high ceiling dangling. The light is so dim that it doesn’t brigh
Lost Queen 36: Beauty And The Beast
XANDERI feel like I’m living in a different dimension. Like the moment I walked into the room, I was transported somewhere else.It was the perfect depiction of my soul leaving my body. That sure as hell seemed like what happened.I could almost feel her presence in the room, like it used to be when she lived here. There was still that aura that she had and the room developed it. It became hers.From her scent that was in every corner, to the calming and welcoming energy. She always had a welcoming aura.Though she didn’t take the place to be her home, it didn’t stop it from being hers. To me and to everyone in this place.And I want her back. I’ll do everything to make sure she comes back. It came like a superpower to her. The ability to make people notice her and warm up to her.She was hospitable. And that would make her the best queen and luna.I stared at the flower that had started to grow. It resembles a small bouquet. Candace has mentioned her worry for how fast it was growin
Lost Queen 37: Heavy Sleeper
ADRIANAI woke up in my bed the next day and everything was intact. It almost seemed like nothing happened. The more I spoke about it, the more it seemed like it was just really a dream and nothing more.But it felt real. It felt very real that I could recall the fear I felt very well. Like I could reach out and touch it. How nervous and scared I was when those people came to pass by me.I wish I’d turned to see the person’s face. Maybe it would have made more sense.Mum was glad when I woke up. The relief was very obvious in her face. And she kept checking up on me after every five minutes. She would just pop in my room. Look at me and check over my body, then she’ll go back out only to come back a few minutes later.Kian too stayed there. He’d told me how scared he was when I refused to wake up no matter what mum did. If not for the fact that my heart was beating and I was still breathing, they would have thought I was dead.That only worried me more, seeing how I wasn’t normally a
Lost Queen 38: Heaven
ADRIANAI expected to wake up and see that it was just a dream. But that never happened.My screams didn’t stop and so did the crazy floating. It was like jumping out of an airplane. I have never done that before, I’m sure of it. But it is the only thing I could accurately describe it as.Though this place is fully dark, with no sign of light from anywhere. There was a pressure, coming at me from every angle. Air whipped around me, making my hair fly everywhere and get in my mouth and eyes. I couldn’t close my mouth. Couldn’t stop myself from screaming, just like I couldn’t hold myself back up and stop from falling.Then all of it just stops. Like turning off a movie or pressing pause on your phone. It all stops.I’m no longer falling. There is no sound of air or my screaming, the place isn’t dark. I couldn’t feel pressure around me. It was all stale.I popped one eye open. Not even sure when I closed it. And the first thing I noticed was a white ceiling and bright lights. I closed my
